Volunteer in a family run organic farm in Urla, Izmir, Turkey
La experiencia
I am running a large farm (about 97 acres) near to Izmir with my parents. We have 800 tangeren trees, 2000 olive trees and about 50 acres to grow vegetables, artichoke, grape, blackberry, strawberry and oregano, wheat, chickpea and some aromatic plants like oregano, mint, lemon grass. We have 5 cats and 12 dogs.
We are looking for hardworking volunteers who don't mind getting their hands and clothes dirty and will respect the rules on the farm.

Actividades & Turnos
During winter we generally start at 9:00 a.m. but during the summer we start at 6:00 a.m. to escape from the hot weather. (during the harvest season it depends on the weather) No experience is necessary as training is given. Much of the help we need is outdoors, so be sure to pack accordingly, at very least you will need a good pair of boots or wellies, a sun-hat, sun cream, vacuum bottle and clothes that you don't mind getting dirty.
